A wonderful team comes together and begins the education process; nutrition, surgical explanation, exercise, basic where, what, how, when & why… I found it to be thorough, insightful and oh so necessary!
Along with this begins testing (blood work, EKG, etc.) to access your health and wellness for surgery.
I had gastric bypass surgery on April 19th, just a few months ago, at Mayo Phoenix. While it is daunting when it is in front of you, the process and “life afterwards” is totally doable!

A belated welcome, @newmexjen. Welcome to "life afterwards". What tip would you offer to someone starting this journey? Or, in other words, is there anything you wished you had known?
